There's only ONE FLAW IN WOMEN
By the time the Lord made woman, he was into his sixth day of
working overtime. An angel appeared and said, "Why are you spending so
much time on this one?"
And the Lord answered, "Have you seen my spec sheet on her? She has
to be completely washable, but not plastic, have over 200 movable parts,
all replaceable and able to run on diet coke and leftovers, have a lap
that can hold four children at one time, have a kiss that can cure
anything from a scraped knee to a broken heart -and she will do
everything with only two hands."
The angel was astounded at the requirements. "Only two hands!?
No way! And that's just on the standard model? That's too much work for
one day. Wait until tomorrow to finish."
But I won't," the Lord protested. "I am so close to finishing this
creation that is so close to my own heart. She already heals
herself when she is sick AND can work 18 hour days."
The angel moved closer and touched the woman. "But you have made
her so soft, Lord."
She is soft," the Lord agreed, "but I have also made her tough.
You have no idea what she can endure or accomplish."
"Will she be able to think?", asked the angel.
The Lord replied, "Not only will she be able to think, she will be
able to reason and negotiate."
The angel then noticed something, and reaching out, touched the
woman's cheek. "Oops, it looks like you have a leak in this model. I told
you that you were trying to put too much into this one."
"That's not a leak," the Lord corrected, "that's a tear!"
"What's the tear for?" the angel asked.
The Lord said, "The tear is her way of expressing her joy, her
sorrow, her pain, her disappointment, her love, her loneliness, her grief
and her pride."
The angel was impressed. "You are a genius, Lord. You thought of
everything! Woman is truly amazing."
And she is! Women have strengths that amaze men. They bear
hardships and they carry burdens, but they hold happiness, love and joy.
They smile when they want to scream. They sing when they want to cry.
They cry when they are happy and laugh when they are nervous. They fight
for what they believe in. They stand up to injustice. They don't take "no"
for an answer when they believe there is a better solution. They go without
so their family can have. They go to the doctor with a frightened friend.
They love unconditionally. They cry when their children excel and
cheer when their friends get awards. They are happy when they hear
about a birth or a wedding. Their hearts break when a friend dies. They
grieve at the loss of a family member, yet they are strong when they think
there is no strength left. They know that a hug and a kiss can heal a
broken heart.
Women come in all shapes, sizes and colors. They'll drive, fly,
walk, run or e-mail you to show how much they care about you. The heart
of a woman is what makes the world keep turning. They bring joy, hope and
love. They have compassion and ideals. They give moral support to their
family and friends. Women have vital things to say and everything to give.
HOWEVER, IF THERE IS ONE FLAW IN WOMEN, IT IS THAT THEY FORGET THEIR WORTH.
